Nominations

When visitors provide information to the site while nominating others and identifying themselves as the nominator, we collect the data shown in the nomination forms. This information is collected only for the purposes of the nomination process, and is stored in a private database that is not accessible to anyone outside the CSLA board. This information is not used for any purpose other than for CSLA to properly identify nominees, select recipients, and follow up with nominators for confirmation purposes. Your data is not sold or aggregated.

If you upload images to the website, you should avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS) included. Visitors to the website can download and extract any location data from images on the website.
